"It’s been seven years since 2017’s album “Sacred Hearts Club” and Foster and his bandmates haven’t lost a step, making thoughtful, first-rate pop for a jangled, insecure era with the 11-track “Paradise State of Mind…” - Associated Press

RIAA Multi-Platinum and Diamond-certified group Foster The People unveil their eagerly awaited new album, Paradise State of Mind, available now via Atlantic Records.

Produced by Foster The People lead singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Mark Foster and bandmate Isom Innis with contributions from Paul Epworth, Jack Peñate, Chrome Sparks and Asa Taccone, at studios in London and Los Angeles (including East West Studios’ famed Studio Three, the room where The Beach Boys recorded Pet Sounds), Paradise State of Mind is further highlighted by such acclaimed tracks as “Chasing Low Vibrations,” “Take Me Back” and the cosmically catchy first single, “Lost In Space.” Hailed by Consequence for “(invoking) moments of psychedelia, the space age, the anthemic of the ’80s, and dramatic disco strings,” the latter track arrived alongside an official music video directed by award-winning filmmaker Rupert Höller and currently boasting over 1.2M.

“I think the trickiest part about this record was trying to be authentic about what had been going on with me,” says Mark Foster, “without writing something super dark and without glossing over it, either. Because, to me, it was really important that hope remain at the core of this whole thing. People need hope. I need hope. And when I think about what hope is – it’s having the courage to walk towards something that you think can be better, while fully acknowledging the darkness and reality around you. That was the goal, walking into this album, which was actually really tricky – to make something that rang true to what was on my mind, but that had this much groove and that would be fun to dance to. You know, to me, they're like Trojan Horses, the message is hiding in the melody.”

Foster The People marked the arrival of Paradise State of Mind earlier this week with a sold-out pair of intimate live dates at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom and Los Angeles, CA’s The Roxy Theatre as well as an electrifying performance of “Lost In Space” on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (streaming HERE). Foster The People will continue to celebrate their new album with a top-billed appearance at Austin, TX’s Austin City Limits Music Festival (Oct 4 & 11). In addition, Foster The People will visit England next week for a special in-store DJ set and signing session at London’s Rough Trade East (August 21) (Tickets HERE) and midnight DJ set in The Disco Room at  Kingston Upon Thames’s PRYZM (August 22) (Tickets HERE). Upon their return, the band will hit San Francisco, CA’s famed indie nightclub POPSCENE for a sold-out DJ set slated for September 5 at Rickshaw Stop.

Currently boasting close to 8 billion worldwide streams and almost 2.5 billion lifetime YouTube video views, Foster the People proved a worldwide sensation with their kaleidoscopic brand of dance-fueled pop music. Formed in Los Angeles in 2009 with multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Mark Foster at the helm, the band exploded with their 2010 debut single, “Pumped Up Kicks,” which topped Billboard’s “Alternative Songs” chart before spending eight consecutive weeks at #3 on the overall “Hot 100” and rising to the upper reaches of charts around the world. Currently RIAA Diamond-certified with 14x Platinum sales in the US, the track earned Foster The People their first GRAMMY® Award nomination (for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance”) as well as the 2012 Billboard Music Award for “Top Rock Song.” Now with over 1 billion worldwide streams via Spotify alone, “Pumped Up Kicks” was joined by an equally phenomenal official music video which attained placement among YouTube‘s prestigious Billion Views Club.

2011 saw Foster The People unveil their 3x Platinum-certified debut album, Torches, which went to #1 on both Billboard’s “Top Rock Albums” and “Top Alternative Albums” while reaching #8 on the Billboard 200 and later receiving a GRAMMY® Award nomination as “Best Alternative Album.” What’s more, the album’s “Houdini” earned the band a third GRAMMY® nod for “Best Short Form Music Video.” Supermodel followed in 2014, which fueled in part by the Gold-certified “Coming of Age,” hit #1 on both Billboard’s “Top Rock Albums” and “Top Alternative Albums” while debuting at #3 on the overall Billboard 200.

Foster The People toured the world while working out material for their third album, 2017’s electronic soul-flavored Sacred Hearts Club. The Gold-certified LP delivered yet another blockbuster hit in the 4x Platinum “Sit Next To Me,” which scored over 200 million worldwide streams while spending 20 weeks on the Billboard “Hot 100.” A series of stand-alone singles were then followed in 2020 by the independent EP, In the Darkest of Nights, Let the Birds Sing, highlighted by such singles as “Lamb’s Wool.” 2021 saw Foster The People celebrate the tenth anniversary of Torches with the extended deluxe edition, Torches X, along with a series of special Torches live shows streamed around the world. Now, in 2024, Foster The People return at last with Paradise State of Mind and much more to come.
